Quota
Embracing Love and Liberation: Sea Cycles' 'Quota' Reflections
Lyrics
remember you are loved
Reminder that one is loved despite absence or distance.
though you're not here as much
Acknowledgment of not being present frequently.
if you're losing touch
Suggesting a potential loss of connection or closeness.
then show that you care enough
Encouragement to express care and affection to bridge the gap.
remember you are loved
Reiteration of the reminder that love persists despite distance.
she said, every time I left
Reference to someone affirming love during departures.
so my mind's at rest while I work to death
Feeling at ease mentally while being occupied with work, possibly to distraction.
to free the weight off my chest
Seeking to relieve emotional burdens.
while I lose my breath
Sacrificing personal well-being (losing breath) for some purpose.
never met a quota
Failing to meet expected standards or goals.
barely here then gone
Being present briefly before disappearing.
never met a quota
Continued failure to meet anticipated targets or standards.
it's embarrassing if you're wondering
Feeling ashamed or uncomfortable if inquiring about fulfilling those expectations.
have you met your quota
Querying about achieving predetermined objectives.
barely here then gone
Reiteration of briefly being present before vanishing.
never met a quota
Consistent failure to meet anticipated benchmarks or targets.
it's embarrassing if you're wondering
Feeling uncomfortable or awkward when contemplating meeting those expectations.
it's embarrassing if you're wondering
Reiteration of discomfort when considering fulfilling the expected norms.
it's american and it's wondrous
Suggesting a connection between the situation and American culture.
it's embarrassing if you're wondering
Reiterating the discomfort or shame of not meeting expectations related to American culture.
it's american and we're suffering
Expressing suffering or hardship associated with American ideals or expectations.
never met a quota
Reiterating the failure to meet expected quotas or standards.
barely here then gone
Continuing the pattern of being present briefly before disappearing.
never met a quota
Reaffirmation of consistent failure to meet predetermined objectives or expectations.
